Clem.




Clementine: What do you want, Joel?
Joel: I don't know. I want you to wait for... just a while.
Clementine: Okay.
Joel: Really?
Clementine: I'm not a concept, Joel. I'm just a fucked-up girl who's looking for my own peace of mind.
Clementine: I'm not perfect.
Joel: I can't see anything that I don't like about you. Right now I can't.
Clementine: But you will. But you will. You know, you will think of things, and I'll get bored with you and feel trapped... because that's what happens with me.
Joel: Okay.
Clementine: Okay.
Clementine isn't real, she's a make believe character. Clementine Kruczynski is the only person in the world that I think could actually understand some of the things that go around in my head. But she's not real.
Such as, "I don't know! I don't know! I'm lost! I'm scared! I feel like I'm disappearing! My skin is coming off! I'm getting old! Nothing makes any sense to me! Nothing makes any sense! ". I've felt like that recently, alot. Okay maybe my skin wasn't coming off but I was just as confused as she was. But she wasn't really, because she's not a real person. I don't believe my thinking is rational until I remember Clementine and think 'other people might feel like this too.'... but then I remember she's not a real person! That upsets me a bit and then leaves me back at square one, thinking I'm a bit of a weirdo. I've grown to accept that feeling though.
She's such a great woman though, a typical nut case. "Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours." She's a bit of an inspiration to me, that's probablt not a good thing but I've stopped caring what's right and wrong. The point I see in that quote is that I'm not here to help you, I'm just trying to help myself, I have my own business.
I want to know her life story, I want to know why she acts the way she does. I want to know who fucked her up. I want to know what her family were like. I want her to be real.
